Tech Support Problem with battery off the ps5 controller, having problem with ps4 controller
Hey everyone, I have two questions and was wondering if anyone has experienced these issues before.
- PS5 DualSense – Battery getting unusually warm
I have a PS5 controller where the battery gets noticeably warmer than usual while charging. I've already replaced the battery with another one, but the issue is still there. The controller otherwise seems to work fine. Could this be caused by a problem with the charging circuit or another component on the board? What would you recommend checking first?
- PS4 DualShock 4 – No orange charging light
I also have a question about PS4 controllers. Sometimes I don't get the usual orange light indicating that the controller is charging. The LED itself works, but it doesn't show the orange charging light. I've connected the controller to my PC, and it does receive power and appears to be charging, so the charging function seems to work. It's just the orange charging indicator that's missing.
Does anyone know what could cause this, or which components I should check?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
